The decisive vic tory of Field Marshal von Hindenburg in Germany's first election of a presi dent by popular vote was the dominat ing topic of discussion Monday throughout Washington official life. Views expressed as to the significance to be attached to the action of the German people in having conferred the presidency upon their national war hero, ranged from the extreme French attitude that it was the unmasking of militarism in Germany, to the German construction that it was a decisive defeat for communism rather than a victory for tho reactionary political faction. Between these two extremes lay the views of British, Italian and Ameri can observers with tho impression among them that a month or two must elapse after the inauguration of the president-elect before it will be pos sible to forecast accurately the effect of his election upon Europe's already complicated political and economic problems. American opinion with relation to the German election continued for the most part to be closely screened be hind the policy of silence that has been observed by Washington officials throughout. No word bearing any re semblance to formal comment was available from any official or even diplomatic quarter. Despite these re strictions, however, it was possible to form accurate impressions as to how the election was viewed in each na tional circle in Washington. Treasury officials saw no economic throat in the election result, viewing the choice of Von Hindenburg as representing a reaction and therefore as indicating a tendency toward con servatism among the majority of the German people. rbe French view is frankly pes simistic. It holds that in rolling up a decisive majority for the field mar shal, the German people have thrown aside any intent to conceal what the French regard as their basic desire that Germany be restored to a condi tion of the military power that would permit enforcement of its will upon other continental nations. The elec tion was construed as justifying all of the doubts Franco has entertained as to tho purposes and ambitions of her German neighbors and to prove that the drastic military precautions and measures she has urged since the sign ing of tho armistice against the more moderate judgment of her allies were fully warranted.

Von Hiudonburg comes to the chair once occupied by Friedrich Fbert who was chosen president by the national assembly at Weimar in February 1919, and who died in Berlin in Feb ruary, 1925.

But in later years, and particularly since entering upon the campaign which has had as its outcome his elevation to the presidency, the field marshal has Included in his ideals unity of tho German people, peace and good will towards all humanity and still a placo in tho sun for the fatherland. t STATE NEWS t IN BRIEF 4 STATES ROCKED BY EARTH TREMORS Chicago.

Old-Fashioned Puddings TN ALMOST any family there will bo found some left-over bread which CanBOt be thrown away and the prob lem of working it into the menu must be thought out.

Raisin Sauce. Boll one and one-half eupfuls of wa ter and one-third cupful of rnislns flf. teen minutes, add one-fourth cupful of brown sugar and boll fifteen minutes longer. Thicken with a teaspoonful of 'TH1K fact that this name Is derived from the word man, as it was used to indicate a servant or retainer, ought not to be objectionable to those who bear the name. Knight also first Indi cated a servant or retainer nnd the good old surnames Chamberlain and Stewart or Stuart were derived from names indicating positions of service. However, It has been pointed out that Mann was an Anglo-Saxon personal name and the surname may have been taken from it. When man is found In compound with other syllables it some Jimes is used purely by wuy of de scription. Thus we have Goodman and Youngman. Still another explanation Is given of the name and undoubtedly this holds true In certuin branches of the family. In this case the name has a local origin and Is derived from Le Mans, the capital of Sarthe in France. For instance William, who came from Le Mans, might have been called William Le Mans which eventually would be come'Wlllinm Mann. The Mann family was early estab lished in this country. There was a William Mann who settled in Cam bridge, Mass., and a prominent Vir ginia family of the name. Then there was a Middle-states family of the name descended from a German ances tor of the name of Mann, which Is even more usual In Germany than in Kngland. Horace Mann, born In 1706, the prominent American educator who married a sister of the wife of Na thaniel Hawthorne, was descended from William Mann who settled in Cambridge, Mass. There was also an Knglish Horace Mann Sir Horace Mann. He was born in 1701. and was the second son of Robert Mann, n Lon don merchant, ire was British envoy at Florence and a man of much promi nence In the diplomatic world. ATKIXS Sometimes this Is from Adam and sometimes from Arthur Pritchard. This is a Welsh name, now usual in England and the United States, and is derived from "Ap Rich ard," meaning son of Richard.
